Fervent - Imazethapyr 10% SL - Coromandel
Product details
Fervent Herbicide by Coromandel
A selective systemic herbicide containing imazethapyr 10% SL, with manufacturer-listed weed uses in soybean and groundnut.
What it contains: Imazethapyr 10% in a soluble-concentrate formulation.
Where it fits: Specified grasses, sedges and broadleaf weeds in soybean and groundnut.
Application focus: Mainly post-emergence use; the exact crop and weed-stage directions on the supplied label control.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
-
🌱Selective crop uses: Designed for specified weed-control uses rather than non-selective clearing of all vegetation.
-
🍃Foliage uptake: Imazethapyr is absorbed through leaves, supporting post-emergence activity.
-
↗️Systemic movement: Moves within the weed through its water- and food-transport tissues.
-
🌾Different weed types: The listed crop-specific scope includes grasses, sedges and broadleaf weeds.
-
🔬Defined resistance group: HRAC Group 2 identifies its ALS-inhibiting action for weed-management planning.

How It Works: Mode of Action
Fervent is systemic. Imazethapyr interferes with the production of amino acids that susceptible weeds need for growth.
-
Absorption: The active ingredient enters through weed foliage; root absorption also occurs.
-
Movement: It moves within the weed through xylem and phloem, the tissues that carry water and food.
-
Growth is inhibited: Blocking the ALS enzyme disrupts production of essential branched-chain amino acids, limiting susceptible weed growth.
Repeated use of Group 2 herbicides can select resistant weeds. Combine appropriate herbicide rotation with other weed-management practices; do not assume every weed in the field is susceptible.

These manufacturer-listed weed sets are not identical to the historical government formulation-reference sets. Do not transfer a reference programme to every weed above without checking the current Fervent label.
Dosage & Application Guide
Numerical application programmes are withheld because manufacturer quantities and separate formulation references do not establish complete current Fervent directions for the same crop and weed set, including method, timing, carrier, permitted adjuvant and harvest requirements.
The historical generic soybean and groundnut references have different weed sets from the manufacturer list, and their MSO adjuvant, timing and harvest directions belong to those separate references. They are not complete current Fervent programmes and must not be attached to all manufacturer-listed weeds.
No numerical Fervent or adjuvant recipe is supplied here. The manufacturer booklet limits the authority of its recommendations and is not the supplied current label. Verify the full matching programme rather than combining rounded quantities or partial instructions from separate sources.
Before treating, confirm the current pack’s crop and weed scope, product quantity, permitted adjuvant, water, crop stage, equipment and harvest directions. Do not extend these uses to other pulses or to rice or wheat, including herbicide-tolerant varieties, without an applicable Fervent label. Confirm following-crop restrictions and field-entry precautions.
How to Apply: Best Practices
-
Identify the weeds: Check the field’s crop and weed species against the supplied Fervent label. Selectivity is crop-specific, not a promise of safety to every nearby plant.
-
Use the right stage: Follow the exact label’s post-emergence window, crop-stage limits and application method. The mainly post-emergence description does not establish a complete crop-specific application programme.
-
Check water and adjuvant: Use only the adjuvant and mixture permitted by the current label. Do not substitute a wetting agent or infer a tank dose from partial quantity references.
-
Protect other crops: Prevent drift onto neighbouring crops and follow label directions for equipment cleaning, crop rotation, harvest and re-entry.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Fervent’s active ingredient?
Fervent contains imazethapyr 10% SL, a selective systemic herbicide in HRAC Group 2.
Which crops does Coromandel list for Fervent?
Soybean and groundnut, each with its own listed weed set. These uses do not automatically cover other pulses, rice or wheat.
Is Fervent mainly a post-emergence herbicide?
Yes. Coromandel describes mainly post-emergence use. Follow the current label for the exact weed stage and crop timing.
Can I use a generic adjuvant reference as a Fervent dilution rate?
No. An adjuvant quantity is not a Fervent dilution rate, and generic MSO instructions do not establish the complete current Fervent programme. Confirm the exact permitted adjuvant and all matching label directions; no per-litre or tank recipe is given here.
Why do the manufacturer and reference figures differ?
Coromandel’s own acre quantities and the government hectare references come with different weed sets and directions. Confirm the current Fervent pack rather than combining numbers from separate sources.
Safety & Disclaimer
Before you use it, read the supplied label and leaflet. Use only for the stated crop, target, dose, application conditions, waiting periods and precautions. Check current local restrictions and any buyer requirements for harvested produce.
Wear the protective clothing and equipment specified on the pack. Avoid breathing dust or spray and avoid contact with skin and eyes. Do not eat, drink or smoke while handling; wash after work.
Keep the product in its original closed container, away from children, animals, food and feed. Prevent spray, spills and washings from contaminating water bodies. Do not reuse empty containers. If exposure or illness occurs, seek medical help and show the label.
